- Many American voters are likely to excessively overcorrect from 2024-2025 to look for honest, authentic, effective, consistent communicators who don’t rely on slogans and platitudes in 2026-28. They aren’t plentiful.
- It's sad that it's such a low bar.
- This is bleak reading
- "Idiocracy" is looming.
